As other related protocols we preferred
to be mute on reset.
The side effects of reset are well understood
and it has been made optional in T10.

Section 9.5.1 says:
 
Task management requests must act on all the commands having a CmdSN lower
than the task management CmdSN.

 
But a Logical Unit Reset, Target [WARM | COLD] Reset and Clear Task Set
w/TST=0 applies to all initiators for the Target or Target/LUN. 
 
Since the initiator that issued the TMF knows nothing about the CmdSN's
of
other initiators, how is this handled for the other sessions?
 
One thing that can be done is to consider that the session that issued
the
TMF is synchronized only with itself and therefore its TMF would apply
to
all CmdSN's on the other sessions. A statement to this effect should
probably be added to 9.5.1.
